    Default need help quick! anyone

    Hey guys. Got a problem. Finally managed to get my stock exhaust off, i had to remove the cat converter too because one of the studs connecting the cat to the exhaust has lost all of the thread on the head and i cant get it off. i have used the blowtorch to get the other 3 studs off, and i have soaked it in WD40.. but i cant get it going.

    Any ideas on how i can get it off?

    angle grind a line through the middle of the head of the bolt (if its a nut angle grind off the excess thread then a line down the middle) then cold chisel off both sides.

    or get a pipe wrench.
